There is nothing in what I wrote that anyone could interpret as “rejoicing”.

There is a difference between “rape” and “stern disipline” as you said. The except from Donohue’s report warns us not to muddy the waters by including both under the banner of abuse. Frankly, that part of what he wrote is so obvious that it is a wonder how anyone can disagree with that specific part.

I had a student once who was accused of “abusing” his child. It helped ruin his life and the accusation was false. I have know idea if his family ever recovered.
